Photojournalism

What an interesting week.

Yesterday Kathleen Thurber from the Midland Reporter-Telegram stopped by to ask me a few questions about my background and my photography business.  Her story should be featured in the online edition of the MRT next week–I will provide the link when it is available.

Today the co-publisher of a magazine contacted me.  She enjoys my work and knows that I hold a B.A. in journalism (news-editiorial) from Baylor University and an M.Ed from Concordia University.  I was asked to submit a photo essay featuring West Texas.  It will be fun to put my degree to use!

Which are your children?

Since I have so many photographs of children on my website, people often ask “which ones are your kids?” I really need to make an effort to share more pictures of my own family here on my little ‘ol blog. (And maybe one of these days I will even get around to posting my own profile pic/mugshot on here).

Hannah is three years old and is crazy about Elmo. She went to Nemo on Ice, reads her Nemo books daily, loves to watch the DVD, and has several stuffed animals, coloring books, shirts, etc. that feature the little orange guy. These pictures were taken last night after bath time when we were getting tucked in for bed.

Sam is 18 months. He enjoys exploring, getting into cabinets, laughing at his big sister’s antics and eating. These snapshots were taken this morning at breakfast time.

It’s getting hot in here!

In celebration of Midland’s 100 degree temperatures, our air conditioner went kaput. Since sleeping in a hot house is miserable, we headed to (Grandma) Mae-Mae’s house last night. The kids did not seem to mind–they love being spoiled by Grandma & Grandpa. Thankfully, the a/c guy added some Puron and we are once again sitting in our own cool house.
